Bronx Speaks: No Boundaries presented by Bronx Arts Alliance opens March 6th as part of New York Armory Week and honoring Bronx Day.

Bronx Speaks: No Boundaries is the latest exhibit presented by the Bronx Arts Alliance (BxAA) including over 60 artworks selected by a curatorial committee and featuring Bronx, US and international artists from over 20 Bronx arts organizations. The exhibit will take place at The Bronx Museum of the Arts and will be installed by independent curator by Sarah Corona. The exhibit is being presented in concert with New York Armory Week. The opening reception will take place on March 6th, the Armory Show's officially designated Bronx Day.

Bronx Speaks: No Boundaries will preview on Wednesday, March 5th and run through Sunday, March 9th. For the opening reception on March 6th, there will be a roundtrip Trolley leaving at 4pm from Pier 94 in NYC to The Bronx Museum of the Arts.

There are no boundaries anymore for the vibrant, dynamic and diverse artwork that is being created and shown within the Bronx. It is as varied as those who live within its space – all cultures, nationalities and ages – with creative visions all their own. The exhibit will reach from corner to corner of the world and include artists born internationally in India, Thailand, Nigeria, Cuba, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, Canada and Scotland; within the United States… and of course…the Bronx! The featured artwork will include painting, works on paper, sculpture, photography, mixed media, site-specific installations, as well as musical performances from those newly arrived emerging artists to late career established ones.

There will be a series of Special Events during the exhibit:

Preview: Wednesday, March 5th from 5-8pm

-- Roundtable with award-winning writer and photojournalist Michael Kamber to discuss his book Photojournalists on War
-- Bronx Cultural Trolley to The Bronx Museum of the Arts
